A "leek" is a vegetable often found in Wales!

If you mean it leaks from a vent beside the filling valve then this is normal during filling and is mentioned in the boiler book!

There is probably a non return valve on the boiler side of the RPZ and perhaps thats whats leaking.

I do not like anything called Sonya Duval. I have been rubbishing them for years and at last they have closed down their UK operation ( about 12 years too late!

Unfortunately there is a similar boiler badged as GlowWorm!

Have you checked the pressure in the expansion vessel ? It shoul be .7 to 1 bar depending on the manufacturers instructions.
